Mexico Holidays
A barefoot beach oasis with a captivating culture, irresistible foodie scene and ultra-luxe all-inclusive resorts.
Mexico is a fiesta of soulful food, carefree shores and underwater realms. There’s a beach for every mood, whatever your vibe, from rustic castaway islands to glamorous beach club hangouts. Beyond its aquamarine waters and white-gold sands, Mexico is full of culture and charisma. You’ll see it in its Aztec architecture, hear it in its mariachi rhythms and taste it in its sizzling streetside tacos.
Discover fascinating archaeological sites and ancient Mayan ruins, such as the forested relics of Coba and UNESCO-listed Chichen Itza, or get out on the water for marine adventures in search of whale sharks. Mexico is also the home of the all-inclusive resort and some of the world’s most spectacular hotels grace its palm-studded coastline.
We’ve travelled all over Mexico, so we can help you find the right setting, stays and sights to suit you.

Whale Shark Encounter
This marine adventure begins at sunrise when you are picked up at your hotel and transferred to the boat that will whisk take you to a spot that's known for its marine wildlife sightings. The warm waters are home to Earth’s largest fish species, the whale shark, which can grow up to 14 metres in length. You’ll be on the lookout for these sedately swimming creatures as they feed on the abundant plankton and krill in the warm waters off the Yucatan coast and even have the chance to swim amid the giants if you so choose. After lunch on board, there'll be time for a swim as you are anchored close to the beautiful Isla Mujeres.

Where is Mexico?
Mexico is the southernmost and smallest country in North America. Its neighbouring countries are the USA and Guatemala and it has coastlines on the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean and Pacific.
Yucatan coast
Stretching south of Cancun along the coast of the Yucatán Peninsula to Playa del Carmen, Tulum and beyond, the Riviera Maya is renowned for its miles of white sand beaches, all-inclusive resorts, the dramatic clifftop ruins of Tulum and fantastic ecological parks. Quieter than Cancun, the region is ideal if you’re searching for peace and relaxation with the opportunity to soak up the natural beauty, history and culture of the region. In Playa del Carmen, the Riviera’s largest resort town, you can enjoy watersports from the beach, sample the local catch-of-the-day at one of the casual beachfront restaurants and stroll around the cobblestone streets and shop for traditional handicrafts, jewellery and folk art on bustling Fifth Avenue.
Islands
Just off the Yucatan coast are a handful of stunning islands, each with its own atmosphere. Lively and lovely Cozumel is just half an hour away by boat from Playa del Carmen and offers the perfect setting for world-class snorkelling and scuba diving. Opposite the popular Yucatan coast destination of Cancun is Isla Mujeres, a slice of paradise that’s has a rich mythological backstory, is wonderfully peaceful and is another top spot for underwater adventures. For a back-to-basics adventure, head up to the car-free and wonderfully rustic island of Holbox (pronounced hol-bosh) where you can bird watch, explore beautiful beaches by bike or just recline on talcum-soft sands.
Diving and snorkelling
Mexico’s Yucatan coast is a highly regarded dive destination. Many dive sites, which regularly appear on ‘world’s best’ lists, are located just 10 to 15 minutes offshore. There are reef walls, caves, healthy coral gardens and even an underwater museum just off the shore of Cancun. A unique opportunity in this region of the world is diving in cenotes. These natural sinkholes are filled with water, both fresh and salt, and act as a gateway to a subterranean, subaquatic world with a vast network of underwater caves. Diving is a year-round activity in this part of the world with water average water temperatures rarely lower than 25 degrees Celsius
Food and drink
Mexican cuisine hardly needs any introduction. It’s such an integral part of the local culture that it has been awarded Intangible Cultural Heritage status by UNESCO. Mesoamerican staples included corn, beans, avocado, sweet potato and chili pepper, while Europeans introduced meat such as chicken and beef, rice and dairy produce.
